Genetic detection increases the risk of atrial fibrillation
The group of international experts headed by German scientists has stated that a gene has been found to increase the risk of atrial fibrillation.
The group of international experts headed by German scientists has stated that a gene has been found to increase the risk of atrial fibrillation.
The scientists conducted a comparative genetic analysis of 1,335 subjects with atrial fibrillation with more than 10,000 healthy subjects.
The result of KCNN3 gene detection is the main culprit in increasing the risk of atrial fibrillation.
According to the findings, the gene KCNN3 participates in a combination of potassium channels affecting the heart rate.
Based on this feature of the KCNN3 gene, in the future scientists can study new drugs that work on potassium channels to help treat heart rhythm imbalance.
This study was published on the website of the British Journal of Nature and Genetics./.
